I watched you spin around and fake a smile
we were all there to watch you run away
you saw me and ill never forget that face
because you didn't know I was coming, didn't know what to say
it was a true surprise
I saw happiness and regret at the same time in your eyes
It was a secret that with time you knew you could beat
but I knew you too well for the secret keep
Today was the day for you to be swept away for the rest of your life
but you keep staring at me and only you know why

What if I had been brutally honest and said exactly what I felt
That night I had you all to myself
What if we could be together and never be apart
Only me and you right from the start
if I knew then what I know now
I wouldn’t be living with this lonely heart

Every night around this time I wake up thinking of you
Been chasing me through my dreams I can't erase the memory of you
Every place I try to hide my face well you find your way around it
When I say I'm ready to cut the ties well I lied now I'm surrounded by you
This ain't nothing but the runaway games, first we run then we chase but we always end up in the same place

Stay up late at night, its all you think about
Your mind wont cut off , though your heads laid down
Traveling back to time, to that special moment
And your jaw drops wide open to say what you’ve always wanted
and you let it lose but this time it was pointless
I guess theres a time and a place… for every heartbreak

My girl I know you still remember the nights we spent by the lake
Breaking curfew not a minute to spare, more like 3 hours too late
I'd take the blame every single time even though the fault was all on you
With those pretty blue eyes begging me to stay what else was I supposed to do

No Fence around this place
just wide open space
picked a lot on the edge of town
my Uncle built it up from the ground
just a place we can call home
it was the vision that my father owned

Every dollar that I ever made, I got from mowing at my neighbors place
learned to drive a stick in the yard, 14 in my granddads car
almost wrecked into our favorite tree, the one we planted just him and me

When I stop and look around, I can almost here the sound
Dads front porch philosophies, my name from momma calling me
This is the place that I love the most, This is the place that I call home
